Andrew Moore was struck by a car in Indiana.
A pro-life college student on a cross-country walk was hit and killed by a car this morning. He was saying the rosary at the time of his death.
Life News reported:
A pro-life student who was part of a pro-life cross-country walk was killed this morning when he was hit by a car. Andrew Moore was a student at Thomas Aquinas College in Santa Paula, California who was a part of the Crossroads tour.
At the time of his death, Moore, a Catholic, was reportedly praying the rosary.
Moore was participating in the Crossroads Walk Across America — five separate, simultaneous journeys of college students traversing the U.S. and Canada in defense of the unborn. A rising junior from Concord, California, Moore was part of the Central Walk, which began in San Francisco on May 19 and will conclude in Washington, D.C., on August 9.
On the group’s website, Moore, 20, talked about why he joined the Crossroads tour.
“I heard about Crossroads from (Jason Handcock, a Crossroads director) when he gave a talk at Thomas Aquinas College. I had already been involved in the pro-life movement for several years: when I am at home I pray in front of the local abortion mill almost every day, and try to speak to the people going in,” he said.
Moore added, “Crossroads sounded like a good way to serve God and help His children. Having hardly ever left California and my sedate suburban life I was also interested in seeing the country, meeting new good people, and just doing something crazy! I have been considering a vocation to the priesthood for some time and Crossroads is a great way to work on my discernment: prayer, sacrifice, and separation from the distractions of the world.”
Accompanied by a chaplain to provide spiritual assistance and an RV carrying supplies, the 12 walkers steadily work their way across the country, day and night, five days a week, usually in 15-mile shifts.

The Conservative Wall commented:
Good thing he was walking for the unborn, if he was walking for gay marriage, his death would of been labeled a hate crime and been all over the news with the White House and Democrats rushing to proclaim him a martyr.
Instead they will say he had what is coming to him.
Mahdi Al-Dajjal commented:
Did anybody on the Left know what this pro-life kid was doing out there walking around? Even your average Leftist gets quite angry about pro-lifers doing just about anything, including breathing air. I’m just saying that hitting somebody with a car is a rather effective way to stop one from breathing air. Just saying…

Accident or intentional?
Whatever this case, bless this young man. I have a feeling he’s gone straight to heaven.
Sasja commented:
It states he was praying the rosary. Was he on the shoulder of the road and not realizing it, stepped into the lane of traffic? Appears to be a very terrible accident. My prayers for his family.

Sad. May God bless his soul and show him His mercy.

Has anyone asked Nancy Pelosi and her flying monkeys of Oz her opinion of the boy’s tragic passing? (She really DOES look like the Wicked Witch in the movie.) I pray to God this broad doesn’t DARE to send condolences to Andrew’s family. Ditto all the other pro-aborts.

Brian Ross is looking for connections between the driver and pro-choice groups. /s

Andrew, you are in Heaven with your maker, God, who loves you. He will protect you now. I will pray for your parents and family in their grief and sorrow at your early passing. Mother Mary, he was praying to you at the time of his death. Comfort him.
